Item 26-WF0345
Hydraulic Consolidation Cell

The Hydrocon hydraulic consolidation cell is the basic part of the apparatus used for the determination of the magnitude and rates of consolidation of soil specimens of relatively low permeability using hydraulically loaded apparatus.
Technical specifications
| Maximum working pressure | 3500 kPa |
|---|---|
| Overall dimensions (dxh) | 260×450 mm |
| Weight approx. | 10 kg |
Technical notes
- Manufactured from anodized light alloy, complete with three valves, one porous base disk and one top loading porous disk. Three support legs for stability.
- For 100 mm dia. soil samples.
Features
- Hydraulic loading
- Low friction design
- No weights required
- Compact design, occupies less space than conventional oedometers
- Incremental or constant rate of loading tests
- Suitable for compacted clay
- Two testing mode available: manual or with automatic data acquisition
